"So is he that by violence executeth unjust judgment."
Sirach 20:3

In context

1How much better is it to reprove, than to be angry, and not to hinder him that confesseth in prayer.

2The lust of an eunuch shall devour a young maiden:

3So is he that by violence executeth unjust judgment.

4How good is it, when thou art reproved, to shew repentance! for so thou shalt escape wilful sin.

5There is one that holdeth his peace, that is found wise: and there is another that is hateful, that is bold in speech.
